[CLOSED] Slanted side view when using TiR in latest 1.5.4. OB.

[cichlidfan]

If this is going to turn into a "Questioning ED's every move / Questioning a Tester's Work Ethic/Procedures", Then I Suggest you take it to PM or Elsewhere...

 

No need, you answered my question.

SZ's fix worked for me too. Thanks!

Fantastic, we can go back to Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrtting bad guys in Caucasus now :thumbup:

Updates to head tracking functions/features...

 

 

Eitherway, the issue isnt the controller itself,

 

But the Workaround to use the old controller works for me:

 

Opening:

/DCS WORLD/CONFIG/INPUT/AIRCRAFTS/DEFAULT/trackir/default.lua

 

and Changing it to the following Resolves the trackir having an offset:

return {
axisCommands = {
-- TrackIR axes
{combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_PITCH'}},	action = iCommandViewVerticalAbs	, name = _('Absolute Camera Vertical View')},
{combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_YAW'}},  	action = iCommandViewHorizontalAbs		, name = _('Absolute Camera Horizontal View')},
{combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_ROLL'}}, 	action = iCommandViewRollAbs		, name = _('Absolute Roll Shift Camera View')},

{combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_X'}}, 		action = iCommandViewHorTransAbs		, name = _('Absolute Horizontal Shift Camera View')},
{combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_Y'}}, 		action = iCommandViewVertTransAbs		, name = _('Absolute Vertical Shift Camera View')},
{combos = {{key = 'TRACKIR_Z'}}, 		action = iCommandViewLongitudeTransAbs		, name = _('Absolute Longitude Shift Camera View')},
{combos = nil, 	action = iCommandViewZoomAbs			, name = _('Zoom View')},
},
}

 

Would this workaround fix the Vive issue as well?

No, this is for TIR Only

I have successfully fixed my TrackIR problem by doing the following:

 

Copy and paste default.lua

 

From:

C:\ED\DCS World 2 OpenAlpha\Config\Input\Aircrafts\Default\trackir

 

To:

C:\ED\DCS World OpenBeta\Config\Input\Aircrafts\Default\trackir

 

 

Attached is the file:

Hope it works for you.

Thanks SkateZilla for the TrackIR fix to restore older setup. I made a JSGME ready mod to make it that much easier to restore after a patch or repair.

Restore 1.5.3 TrackIR settings.rar

[uboats]

can anyone use TIR and turn left/right to see the tail or only ~90 left/right?

Splendid

Thanks for that, much appreciated, although I did get mixed results with the Vive..

 

M2K, Ka50 and SU25T; now working fine, even after a restart of DCS

A10c, I have to reapply the fix almost everytime I enter the cockpit

Mi8, I couldn't get the fix to work with this at all

 

As this is a workaround until a permanent fix comes out I'll just stick to flying the M2k and Ka50.

I could not until I copied over the file from 2.0 alpha.

[Redacuragsr]

Users w/ Custom Views already Set and Saved overriding the defaults likely dont have this issue as their saved vAngle is set to 0 or close to it.

 

Hey Skate,

 

I had costume views set, and I was still effected....if that helps some one. I also noticed that in the Mig-21 everything worked pretty much like it used to, except for when you start looking back your head just keeps spinning through round and round, until I run out of the the TIR axis.

This fixes the issues in Opentrack aswell, thanks! You do however lose the new outside view headtracking control.

Thank you for the workaround SkateZilla, I can finely go back to enjoying DCS. And thanks to Shahdoh for making it painless to install. :thumbup:

Facetracknoir issue fixed for me, thank you!

[Bearfoot]

Me, too, with Gazelle and Huey.

 

Quitting DCS and restarting fixes it ... until it goes wrong again.

 

I also find that if I am leaning forward for whatever reason when first spawning, the really, really, really, really, really, really, really [x1000000] annoying slow zoom back at aspawn does not zoom back all the way, even after I lean backward. Results in the view fixed with my nose pressed against the windshield. The only way to fix this is to restart the mission.

This is a normal problem in software development.

 

Development machines, like mine, have plenty of tools that allow them to basically ignore errors like the ones you are experiencing.

 

So, when you use a development machine to test your work sometimes you miss stuff like this because your computer just says "meh" and keeps working as intended.

 

thanks for explaining and i understand, but i was not meaning razbam testing or you specifically, sorry if it sounded that way! :) from reading the mirage forum i know you are really working hard and always very helpful and communicative with updates etc.

 

i was probably thinking more of general ED testers, those people who play with the whole update before it gets put on open-beta.

This gets me wondering if ED will be able to implement the new head-trackable external views while still maintaining the locked mouse look and un-slanted view in the cockpit.

[decipher]

haha sorry guys, now it looks like i spammed the answers, but i just answered to different threads about trackIR problems in the different forums [for mirage, mig21, gazelle, etc] , to help people find the fix.

now it all got moved together to this thread :)

[SkateZilla]

if you dont want headtracking in external view, pause track Ir.
